Course Description

The study of Biochemistry merges concepts from Biology and Chemistry to explain the basis of life. This course provides a detailed investigation into the structure/function relationship of biological macromolecules (Nucleic Acids, Proteins, Lipids, Carbohydrates) and how they interact in biological systems. Special emphasis is placed on protein folding and kinetics, membrane transport and bioenergetics.

Course Description
This half course unit is designed for students whose principal discipline is not Biochemistry, but whose interests lie in the broad area of biological sciences. It is primarily a lecture course with tutorials and a dry lab practical on protein structures. The course covers key topics in protein structure and function. The depth of understanding of these topics that students attain equips them for final year studies in non-molecular based fields of biological science such as Anthropology, Psychology, and Physiology, or in some cases Human Sciences.
